Aquarium Advice Newbie
I realize that this has been asked a bunch before, I'm just not finding the answer that I need and I'm really inexperienced so I just need a little extra direction. I'm starting off with a 37 gallon aquarium kit including hood and LED light set up. The yank is 22" deep. I realize that I need more light for low light plants than this offers. Is there any products that I can effectively use in conjunction with this hood? I only have about 2" max between the edge of the filter and the pre existing lighting. I thought I might be able to modify the hood on the sides to accommodate the brackets but the height is an issue. I can solder but I simply do not understand enough about what exactly I need to feel confident about just adding LEDs myself. I'm on a pretty tight budget to get this done, which is a big part of the reason I wanted to try to use what I already have. Is this something that is even doable or do I need to get a glass top and a proper light?
